Still only bouncing one thing in your example, but yes I do agree it does have the potential to enable some nutty combos. Though even in stuff like the scenario you described it does have a tendency to need other cards for such shenanigans (Preparation, Record Scratcher, and Shadow of Demise in your example). Also I think rogue already did a similar combo during barrens meta with Tenwu of the Red Smoke + Shadowstep. Honestly that combo was probably much easier than most things with Bounce Around (ft. Garona) will be.
I’m not saying it’ll be meta, or even good. But theoretically it’s possible! And possible is all some players need to make it happen (or die 600 times trying at least)!
Rin, Orchestrator of Doom is a very disruptive card for both players usually. Ideally you play this in a deck that either doesn’t care about havingspecific cards or in a deck that already wants to do what she does (self mill or discard).
You know, at some point the whole "Warlock is a class that griefs you" becomes a bit stale. They have done so many of these and with each iteration they become more and more awkward to play.
Like, remember the original [Hearthstone Card (Rin the First Disciple) Not Found] and Gnomeferatu? They were simple, to the point, and they worked. Now you have to jump through seven loops just to get an effect that barely even puts you at an advantage.
I'm assuming you're supposed to use this with all the Deathrattle synergies from last set (mainly Shallow Grave) and then mill your opponent into submission while dodginng fatigue damage yourself with Void Virtuoso, but how on earth could that be practical.
Unironically, the original Rin is probably a better win condition even today than this thing.

Tenwu bounced one minion and made it cost 1. This bounces everything, making it cost 1. Along with the weapon that can refresh a bunch of mana if buffed up you could potentially do some crazy battlecry/combo effects multiple times. And with the other Rogue legendary spell we got recently, you could effectively bounce things twice!
Play Alex, break weapon for a bunch of mana, prep, bounce, alex again, shadow of demise, alex again. A potential 24 burst damage turn late. In Wild with other cost reduction tools, Brann/Shark, this could get nutty
This looks pretty nuts to be honest. It's Shadowstep, but instead of reducing cost it basically just gives you a copy with Rush, which eliminates any potential loss of tempo.
just imagine what this wouuld do if Classic Edwin was still around.
Pretty strong as long as you can jam a sizeable amount of Combo cards into your deck and I'm pretty sure you can. A lot of card draw is combo-based so this just makes sense to throw in. BAsically just new Gnoll except it isn't complete bullshit.
Assuming that Prep is still in Standard this could be really huge. Not sure what to use this with (Freebird, lol), but surely a multi-Tenwu has to be good
Wow, Bounce Around (ft. Garona) dunks so hard on Vanish it ain't even funny. Sure, Vanish was also useful in resetting your opponent's board, but this new card is way more powerful with its low cost and cost reductions.
Hmmm, wondering if Wronchi's video is a Standard or Wild duel. If it is Standard, he may have also announced that Enviscerate is coming to the new Core set.
New Shaman Spell - Altered Chord
Turning the board into absolute hell and then killing your opponent, of course

If this somehow becomes meta it will just get hardcountered by weapon removal.
Also you need to ahve stuff on the board to bounce it in the first place

that is why arguably... shadowstep is better for combos and OTKs, while new ones are better for tempo
Rhyme Spinner
Two Combo cards to make spinner a winner?
That's asking A LOT of rhyme this time...

Shadowstep reducing the cost by 2 for basically free is what makes it super strong so i dont think these are that much better if at all.
New Rogue Minion - Disc Jockey
Mediocre. The stats are awful and you need to combo to even get any use out of him, but maybe it's just that important to keep playing Combo cards.
Man, Foxy Fraud in Core would be a godsend for this.
New Rogue Spell - Breakdance
This looks pretty nuts to be honest. It's Shadowstep, but instead of reducing cost it basically just gives you a copy with Rush, which eliminates any potential loss of tempo.
just imagine what this wouuld do if Classic Edwin was still around.

New Neutral Minion - Obsessive Fan
She looks like she owns a jar.

Vanish was powerful exactly because it bounced your opponent's stuff, you're comparing apples to oranges here.
You can say it dunks on the 1-mana spell from Rise of Shadows, but that one saw basically no play.

Bounce Around (ft. Garona) - Neat bounce effect. I think it’ll rely on Preparation to be played considering how Tenwu of the Red Smoke did during its time in standard.
Disc Jockey Is a neat combo card. If combo rogue is good in standard this is played in it.
Breakdance seems nice. It’s a Seance that gives rush usually. Really solid bounce card. Has some Devouring Swarmesque utility.
Rhyme Spinner Is a strong payoff for combo rogue.
